How to set up access to keep a histroy of what was in a feild before it gets change

1 New Member
I need to keep a history of what was entered in a field and save. The user will have to be able to pull the information as report showing a story of changes.

How do I do this in Access 2007?

You could keep a before/after state log for all changes. Additions wouldn't have a before-state and deletions wouldn't have an after-state. Clearly, each log would need to be date/time stamped if it's to be of much use.

This could get quite voluminous.
